Driveshaft center bearing
Hi all,
My daughter's 92 occasionally clunks while moving in reverse (like a bad CV joint) occasionally ticks with vehicle speed that can only be heard when coasting with windows open, on bridge or near wall to reflect sound, and vibrates when accelerating, sometimes...Most time, all is quiet.( Especially quiet when we are trying to figure out where the noise is coming from... I am having a hard time pinning down exactly what is causing the noise. My daughter whose hearing is better than mine, thinks the noise comes from the console area, maybe center bearing? Does the driveshaft need to come out to test center bearing?

Check the transmission mount... This is usually the culprit when the rubber seperates

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the fast response! I could not find it or diagram on Subaruparts.com. I didn't go under car yet tonight...How hard is the mount to replace? How much is the mount? Even without knowing cost$ and difficulty, it sounds less painful than driveline woes...

I hate to remove my exhaust as it is just 1 big piece and all, so I replaced mine the first time in about 25 minutes. We, it took forever to jack the car up, so total time was about an hour. not too hard at all, just like a 14mm and a 12mm socket, long extension and a ratchet.

Hi all,
Tom was right (as usual) my rear transmission mount has separated. Got a new one from Liberty Subaru ($82+7.35 shipping) Going to install it this weekend, question: Where is best place to lift trans to get old one out/new one in?
